1. I already know that piece of information, Matthew and you do not need to
repeat that to me, Matthew.
2.I never mentioned where I lived in that post, Matthew. I may have
mentioned where I lived in another post but not that post, Matthew. I just
wanted to inform you of the contents of the post, Matthew.
3. (I make a small, descisive snort and a small laugh as I read that
response to my post.)
4. It is me versus HOW many people on Lugnet?
I do believe that it is a joke and we have talked about wings and no wings
more often than a maxipad commercial. (I hope that Shiri, Suzanne, and
other female users of Lugnet do not find that comment as sexist because it
is the truth that came from my post on Lugnet which was, after all, about
wings, particularly on space craft.)
